[Gllug] multiple pointer config in X

[will]

Hi All,

I have an Acer laptop with a touchpad which works fine.  I want to get my USB 
intellimouse to work in X but I a problem.  I can't get both to work at once. 
Have googled around and found a couple of HOWTOS but have not had much luck.  It 
always works out that although I can use one, then reconfigure and use the other 
after restarting X, I can't get both to work at once (or at least in quick 
succession).  Any ideas?  This is my XF86Config-4 file:

Section "ServerLayout"
         Identifier     "Anaconda Configured"
         Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
         InputDevice    "Mouse0"
	InputDevice	"Mouse1"
         InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

Section "Files"

# The location of the RGB database.  Note, this is the name of the
# file minus the extension (like ".txt" or ".db").  There is normally
# no need to change the default.

     RgbPath	"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"

# Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (they are concatenated together)
# By default, Red Hat 6.0 and later now use a font server independent of
# the X server to render fonts.

     FontPath   "unix/:7100"

"Protocol" 
"Xqueue"

# Specify which keyboard LEDs can be user-controlled (eg, with xset(1))

# 
Option

# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
# lines below (which are the defaults).  For example, for a non-U.S.
# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
# 
Option 
"XkbModel" 
"pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# 
Option 
"XkbModel" 
"microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
# 
Option 
"XkbLayout" 
"de"
# or:
# 
Option 
"XkbLayout" 
"de"
# 
Option 
"XkbVariant" 
"nodeadkeys"

# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
